Teeth Whitening

Free assessment

A pre treatment assessment is carried out by a dentist to ensure your mouth is healthy. We can also advise you what change in shade can be expected in your particular case and which is the best option for you. There is no charge for this service. For more information contact the practice.

Teeth whitening options

We offer various whitening options at our Manchester practice for whiter teeth. These include Philips Zoom Advanced Power Whitening in surgery system and the Philips Zoom NiteWhite Professional Home Whitening System. These provide the whitening solutions suitable for most patients.We are also please to know announce we supply the Boutique Whitening system.

We also offer tailor made whitening solutions for patients who have more complex problems such as tetracycline staining or have one tooth which is darker than the rest. All treatment is carried out by dental professionals registered with the General Dental Council. It is the view of the General Dental Council that those not qualified and registered with them should not carry out such treatment. Furthermore many systems used in beauty salons contain chemicals that can permanently damage the enamel of teeth. All the systems we use have been researched and found to be safe.

You may have just one dark discoloured tooth due to previous trauma. These teeth can be whitened individually using a combination of internal and external whitening.

Internal whitening involves placing the bleaching gel on the inside of the tooth to lighten the tooth from the inside out. This can be done in tandem with external whitening which involves placing the bleaching gel on the outside of the tooth to whiten from the outside in.

The discoloured tooth will have to be root filled in order to be suitable for this technique.

Once the darkened tooth has reached the shade of your other teeth you can then proceed to full mouth whitening if desired.

Cost £320 per tooth

Tetracycline Staining

Patients who took tetracycline antibiotics as a child may have teeth with a dark banded appearance. Tray whitening can be used to lighten the teeth and reduce the prominance of the bands.

This procedure can take up to 6 months (sometimes longer) to achieve the desired result as tetracycline stained teeth are particularly resistant to bleaching.

However the procedure is simple, non-invasive and excellent results can be achieved.

Cost £250 for initial at home whitening kit then £125 per month for additional gel as required
